Last Saturday I finally go to go up in the hot air balloon ride. It only took 5 times to go up.
I loved it. The view was so spectacular. We got above the clouds. I love that my best friends agreed to come along. Still on a high from this one.

we laid it out and got read to blow air into it. Then heat it up so we could fly

It been 30 years since you have been gone. My life has continued on. I have had ups and downs. I miss you.

I wonder what my life would be like if you were still here. Would we be friends and do things together?. Would the grand kids have fun at grandmas? Would you have traveled to visit family around the country?

Well, Just so you know I have tried to be a good person. I do think of others before myself and that is just the way of life for me. I have some great people in my life to hold me accountable and love me for being me. I know you would like them.

I think about you often. One of my favorite memories is doing jigsaw puzzles at the dining room table. Now if I do a puzzle I have to make sure the cats don't get in to it.

Now at 30 years later I am trying not be poor me but be thankful for all you taught me. It is hard to see my friends with their parents and know that I don't have that. I hate that jealousy gets in my life with that. God will take care of me.

So I know that Facebook is a social media and we all have different opinions and beliefs.
I posted this last night and made it my profile picture

I did this at night just before bed. When I checked in the morning someone had posted something hateful.

I did not post this to judge others but to state MY beliefs. I love that the Elders at my church have us every week the

Apostles' Creed

I believe in God the Father, Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth:

And in Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son, our Lord:

Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary:

Suffered under Pontius Pilate; was crucified, dead and buried: He descended into hell:

The third day he rose again from the dead:

He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty:

From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead:

I believe in the Holy Ghost:

I believe in the holy catholic church: the communion of saints:

The forgiveness of sins:

The resurrection of the body:

And the life everlasting. Amen.

As we celebrate the life and death and resurrection of Jesus Christ I will not be ashamed to post something I believe. I am not judging anyone and I do not want to be judged. I am a sinner saved by grace living a life I hope that shows other God in my life.
